Nice, did you get it locally?

**dslazar9** · 10-01-2010, 01:02 AM

No, got it from Bob Keyes.

Beautiful, he does nice work.
Bob has restored two for me and I picked up a Bengall from him.
Is that your first Filarmonica?

Yes this is my first Filarmonica and by far the nicest razor I own. My first shave with it this morning was amazing. I love the heft. I expected it to be much harder to shave under my nose. This is my first razor bigger than 5/8.

I'm loving the gold wash in it. I'm a sucker for fancy faces on straight razors.
It is comforting to hear that you were able to shave with that kind of heft. I usually get wary around straights over 6/8, but that's just my opinion. I have been looking into a "larger" blade, but I don't want it to be a sword!

Nice score!!

Those Fillies are just so smooth. Congratulations. Be careful, however, as they as addicting and may deplete your existing razor supply to fund new purchases.

Congrats!
I'm still awaiting my second Filarmonica. The first one I'll give to Buddel for rescaling.
